iVerify is a mobile endpoint detection and response platform for iOS and Android fleets, built by the team that came out of Trail of Bits. It looks for spyware, smishing, SIM swaps and zero-click exploits on employee phones, and it does so without requiring an MDM enrolment, which is what distinguishes it from most mobile device management tooling.

Hiring 3 roles · 1 in sales and marketing (40%)
Flagged 25 August 2026 · 6.05 → 6.28 authority · +3.8%
Signal

Open roles 4 to 5, and engineering roles 1 to 2, so a small board doubled the half of it that builds. Traffic rank improved 1.1% the same day. Hiring is the signal a company pays for months before anything public moves, and a two person engineering team becoming a four person one is a decision already taken.

Repository · seen by GitHub, HackerNews

Omacosy is a pre-1.0 desktop environment for macOS in the style of Omarchy: tiling windows with a real Super key, a dwindle layout, a purpose-written themed status bar, focus-follows-mouse, trackpad workspace swipes and a live workspace overview. Six self-built Swift binaries in one repository, built and tested on Apple Silicon.

Flagged 25 August 2026 · 151 → 620 stars · +310.6%
Signal

Stars 146 to 151 and forks 3 to 4 in a day, with 57 HackerNews points behind 45 comments. Comments running close to points is argument rather than applause, and forks climbing faster than stars is people running it rather than bookmarking it. The open issue count went 1 to 0 the same day.

How to read this

Method

Every riser shows the earlier and latest reading. Count-based signals also show their percentage change. Rankings show the number of positions climbed from the earlier position to the latest one; a lower position is better.

Funding rounds show disclosed amounts and targets. Company rank movement shows a third-party 90-day momentum signal, current position and observation date. Archived briefings preserve each day’s published signals and follow-ups.
